Local Unit Configuration Commands

Console Commands, page 41). There are two commands for configuring this feature from
the Remote console:

Local Unit Initial Hot Key
For Local unit firmware versions ‘S50’ and above only

with Audio/Serial)

must press an initial ‘hot’ key followed by . By default, the initial ‘hot’ key
is but this can be changed to from within Command
Mode. The setting is stored in EEPROM.
To toggle the Local unit initial ‘hot’ key, enter Command Mode and then press
. The
console automatically exits from Command Mode after you use this command.
Local Unit Scroll Lock Key Mode
For Local unit firmware versions below ‘S50’ only
(for example, ACU1009A, ACU1006DRA, and ACU3009A)
In firmware versions earlier than ‘S50’, a Local console user can disable the Remote
console (and start a Private mode session) simply by pressing . An initial
‘hot’ key is not required. In these cases, the Scroll Lock key is not passed to the CPU.
From within Command Mode, you can restore normal Scroll Lock operation. This disables
the Private mode feature on the Local console.

console, press . The setting is stored in EEPROM. The console automatically exits
from Command Mode after you use this command.
On the Remote console, the Scroll Lock key will always function as
normal. However, the Scroll Lock LED is used to show Private Mode
status. If the Scroll Lock key is assigned to Private Mode (default), then
the Remote console’s Scroll Lock LED will not light when
is pressed.
